is it possible to load movies/images in a dummy clip inside a button? 1

[LucBloom]

I do a lot of localization, and i don't want all the possible languages inside my .swf. Also there are occasions that only a .jpg is available.

Is there a way to achieve the result you'd expect from

this.myButton.createEmptyMovieClip("dummy", 1111);
this.myButton.dummy.loadMovie("images/" + langage + "/myImage.jpg");

You can't target a button's timeline.

You can always use a movieclip as your button though - this means you can target it's timeline as normal and in MX and above you can attach button-type events to mcs:

this.myMovieClipButton.onrelease=function(){
//do stuff
}

Correction:

this.myMovieClipButton.onRelease=function(){
//do stuff
}

Capitalisation is important in MX2004...
